No Painting

I'd finished my friesian painting last night, but sorry, I'm not posting it. In fact, I've already gessoed over the canvas. The painting just really wasn't my style. I experimented and tried a different atmosphere and it just didn' t work for me. It was very dark and sort of gothic. So not moi.

What am I working on now? I've put together a composition of paint horses from pictures I took last weekend. I've got a few standing in water, and a few more grazing. The water's a challenge and the painting might take at least the whole week. I'll be at my easel for the rest of the week. 'Til next time . . .
